The Spaniard only hopes to win
Trainer Spain national team Luis de la Fuente spoke about the future semi-final match of the League of Nations against the Italian team.
“The team is improving. I am convinced that tomorrow we will have a great game. It seems to us that we are on the right track to create a new, strong and unique football brand. The match against Italy will be equal. We are approximately on the same level. The characteristics of the commands are quite similar. So the fate of the match will decide the little things. We will try to surpass the opponent in these small things – this is the key to success.”
“We don’t even think about ‘avoiding’ the match for third or fourth place. The only thing I think about is reaching the final. I approach this match as the last one. I have always played and coached like it was the last match of my life. Tomorrow doesn’t exist. You can use this as a title.”
“I think that the lack of time is the main disadvantage of the coach of the national team. But we are used to it. Me included. It would be great if we had more time to prepare, but we have a slight advantage despite the small amount of training. We have top players on the team who absorb everything we say quickly.”
Recall that on June 15, in the semi-final match of the League of Nations, the Spanish national team will play with the national team of Italy at 21:45 Kyiv time. In the second semi-final, the teams of the Netherlands and Croatia will play among themselves, the match will take place on June 14 at 21:45 Kyiv time. The match for third place and the final will take place on June 18.
